A man in Moscow looks at a computer screen displaying a photo published on the website of RT, the Russian state English language television channel, on May 14, 2013. The screen shows a man, identified as Ryan C. Fogle, the third secretary of the political section of the US embassy in Moscow, being held to the ground face down and having his hands put behind his back during his arrest by an agent from Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB, ex-KGB). Russia said it had detained Fogle, an alleged American CIA agent, after he was discovered with a large stash of money as he was trying to recruit a Russian intelligence officer.
